<p>i am a white female from PA
i had a 3.0 GPA end of junior year

i am in all honors classes offered this year....no AP's for seniors this year...
i play varsity tennis, and i am in the drama club, yr book president, i have a job, and i am in world affairs club....</p>

<p>what do you think my chances are???</p>

<p>i'd say you have a good chance. is umass the only school you applied to?</p>

<p>no i have gotten into Washington college, U pitt,U hartford,and Guilford and i appiled to Boston College, Bates, and UNC for reaches...</p>

<p>well, you won't get into BC, Bates, or UNC, that's for sure. UMass, or known to the rest of the world as ZooMass, is very easy to get into. That said, you're in.</p>

<p>thanks for your in put i no the other schools are very hard to get into as i said there a reach...</p>

<p>Don't listen to him. I think that you have a shot (albeit a long one at some of them) at all of the schools you're applying to. Best of luck to you!</p>

<p>Why do you want to go to UMass? Why not Pitt?</p>

<p>there are to many ppl from my high school who aleady go to PITT i want to go somewhere where i can start fresh, at the beggining? also i love MA</p>

<p>Oh no, you just ended a statement with a question mark.</p>

<p>thanks i know.... because i am questing if my train of thought is being followed by 3girlsforme....and FYI when u end a sentence with a question mark it is bc its called a question.</p>

<p>my friend applied to Amherst ED with a 3.4 and amazing extracurriculars a fabulous essay and ok reccomendations. SAT was 2290.</p>

<p>flat out rejected.</p>

<p>hmm...MA applicants can get in almost automatically if they pass the MCAS here...</p>

<p>humm thats weird....there average SAT is only around 1100 where else did your friend apply? u mass must have been a safty...maybe they thought that if he/she was accepted they would not go there bc there SAT and GPA where so good...</p>

<p>no, she applied ED so they would have known they wern't a safety. i dont know but at our school, Amherst specifically is reputed to be very good (note: not the whole UMass system, just amherst)</p>

<p>ohh did she apply to U Mass amherst or Amherst?? i appiled to U mass amherst....not amherst i would never get in there its really hard! i feel really bad for you friend btw this whole college thing is such a luck of draw</p>

<p>You'll get into UMASS. BC, Bates, UNC-- very unlikely.</p>

<p>i know thanks :) gotta have dreams though!</p>

<p>ohhhh! I didnt realise there was a difference. yeah, she applied to Amherst. There we go.</p>

<p>haha ya there we go i was scard there for a secent.... sorry for the mix up! best of luck to you and your friend!</p>

<p>does anyone know how long it takes to hear back for there rolling notification?</p>
